Verdict

TIMOSHENKO has clearly improved from two to three-years-old on the evidence of his reappearance success at Chepstow recently. He did plenty of the legwork there but still held on well at the end when challenged and Sir Mark Prescott's charge is entitled to improve for the run. He looks hard to beat now. Claramara comes here off a breakthrough win at Beverley and should make a race of it, while Saturday's Hamilton third Enemy Of The State is also considered despite the quick turnaround. Sincerely Resdev is running some useful races just now and could pull out more if the new headgear has the desired effect.
  1. Timoshenko
  2. Claramara
  3. Sincerely Resdev
